Swamp Harrier Phillip Island

every day since I got here I have seen various hawks, falcons and eagles and every day I have completely failed to get a shot I'm really thrilled with, today is no different, but this is possibly the closest I have been to them with camera in hand, they've been much closer when I was driving along little laneways in my car! I love watching them soar and hover
love them too! hope you are enjoying being back on the island!

@jenrobcarr I'm still missing my quiet tropical island, this island is not as peaceful, the incessant hum of motorcycle invaders for the grandprix and buzzing of blowflies is a little annoying. Even this place seems crowded compared to CI, but it is a lovely place in spite of my complaints

Great capture. Looks like he is in the hunt.

I think it's a great capture with him hovering like that and the heat waves in the background!

Wonderful shot - you can see his concentration and the flick of his wings is beautiful

Beautiful. Are you back in close proximity to your 100-400mm yet?
